DESCRIPTION
One of the finest Brazilian jazz-funk fusion albums ever recorded, São Paulo Brasil by César Camargo Mariano is a masterpiece that thoroughly deserves its cult status. Originally released in the 1970s, it is now receiving its first official reissue outside of Brazil, making it a must-have for collectors and jazz enthusiasts alike.
César Camargo Mariano is a celebrated Brazilian jazz pianist, composer, and producer, born in São Paulo in the 1940s. Throughout his career, he has worked with renowned artists such as Elis Regina (whom he was once married to), Som Tres, and Sambalanco Trio. Still actively performing, Mariano’s influence on Brazilian jazz remains profound.
On São Paulo Brasil, Mariano and his ensemble dive deep into jazz-funk and fusion territory, delivering tight, tough drum grooves, intricate arrangements, and layers of synthesizers, percussion, and FX. The album tells a compelling story through its sound from the first beat, capturing the essence of Brazilian jazz-funk fusion at its finest.
